How this is calculated
We search the Property Price Register for closed sales near this property — matching by location, beds, property type, and where available, floor area (±20%). This gives us a set of genuinely comparable transactions.
Each sale is then time-adjusted to today using local price trends, so a sale from 18 months ago is inflated (or deflated) to reflect current market conditions. Where floor area is known, sales are also size-adjusted — a 90m² sale is normalised to what it would have sold for at this property's size. This means the figures you see aren't raw prices — they're what those same homes would likely sell for today, at this size.
Your bid strategy (opening offer, sealed bid range, walk-away ceiling) is then derived from the statistical distribution of these adjusted sales — with conservative safety margins applied when data is thin or dated.
Every figure comes from actual government-recorded sale prices. No asking prices, no agent estimates, no automated valuations.

How adjustments work

- —Local price trends factored in when sufficient data exists; no artificial uplift otherwise
- —All figures from registered closed sales only — no asking prices, no agent estimates
Local Market Notes
Property Quality
C1 BER Efficiency: The C1 BER rating suggests moderate energy efficiency, implying annual energy costs for this property are likely around €1,600-€2,000, which is €400-€800 higher than comparable properties with B2 or higher ratings in the area.
Generous Living Space: At 232m², this bungalow offers substantial living space, which is typically well-received in areas with larger plot sizes, indicating good space efficiency for its footprint.
Upgrade Opportunity: While the C1 BER is acceptable, upgrading to a B2 rating could cost an estimated €7,000-€10,000, potentially increasing the property's value by €12,000-€18,000 and reducing annual energy costs by approximately €500.
Hypothesis: The C1 BER rating, while not top-tier, combined with the large plot size (c. 0.9 acres), suggests a property designed for comfort and space rather than ultra-low energy consumption; the €771,669.69 estimated value, despite the BER, indicates that unique features like the granite stone frontage and substantial land are valued more highly by the market than immediate energy efficiency improvements in this specific micro-location.
Amenities
Limited Direct Transport: The property's rural setting means direct public transport links are sparse, with no specific bus routes, Luas, or DART stations mentioned as serving Manor Kilbride directly, suggesting reliance on private transport for most journeys.
Local Village Essentials: While specific details are absent, locations like Manor Kilbride typically offer basic local amenities such as a primary school, local shop, and a pub within a short drive, catering to day-to-day needs.
Rural Lifestyle Appeal: The c. 0.9-acre plot size and granite stone frontage suggest a property aimed at buyers seeking a quieter, more rural lifestyle with significant private outdoor space, potentially sacrificing immediate access to extensive urban amenities.
Hypothesis: The lack of specific public transport, schools, and shops listed for Manor Kilbride suggests this property appeals to a niche buyer who prioritizes significant land and a tranquil setting over urban convenience; it's likely that the nearest comprehensive amenities would be in towns like Blessington (approx. 5-10km away), implying that transport costs and travel times to essential services will be a significant factor for potential buyers.
